Una aproximación al desarrollo psicosexual desde la perspectiva de la metapsicología freudiana

Abstract

This paper is a review and theoretical reflection of the conception of ps
ychosexual development from a personal
psychoanalytical perspective that is Freudian metapsychology, which also includ
es some developments
proposed by Arcila Arango. It synthesizes and describes psychosexual development
from the viewpoint
of Freudian psychoanalysis, such as the fundamental elements of the pro
cess, including the inevitable
vicissitudes of repression, finishing with the presentation of
an approach to Freudian psychoanalysis as an
intervention for ‘unlocking’ development and moving towards adult geni
tal sexuality. Also proposed is the
possibility of observing the effects of psychotherapeutic interventions
by means of four key elements that occur
in human sexuality. At the same time this work covers a fundamental interest b
y showing that, although there
is a considerable amount of research into psychosexual development, there is very
little that gives a descriptive
account of the concept of psychosexual development from the very heart of what
the Freudian system proposes.
